A cyclist who fell from his bicycle while riding the 680 Trail in the area of the Terra Linda-Sleepy Hollow divide near San Anselmo was taken by helicopter to the hospital with a concern of head injury Sunday afternoon, officials said.

The cyclist received medical attention from one of the department's paramedics and was flown via a California Highway Patrol helicopter to John Muir Medical Center, Hanson said.
